Michigan DUI

A DUI arrest naturally brings feelings of fear, embarrassment and regret. 

Although it's normal to be anxious as a result of a drunk driving charge, the simple truth is that, with proper legal handling, the legal penalties and negative consequences don't have to be anywhere near as bad as you probably fear right now. 

For example, jail is almost never a realistic outcome in a 1st offense case. If that's your big worry, then you can already relax a bit...

Instead of stressing out about things that probably won't happen, your focus should be on avoiding the penalties that are likely to happen, such as restrictions on your driver's license, and things that can happen, like getting stuck long, difficult probation and/or being required to complete unnecessary counseling and treatment.

As Michigan DUI Lawyers, our job is straightforward: To get your Operating While Intoxicated (OWI a/ka "DUI") charge dismissed or reduced, and we are in court almost every day doing just that. 

We can and will produce the best results possible in your case. Remember -  

Success in a DUI case is best determined by what does NOT happen to you.

We concentrate our DUI Practice to the local courts of Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, Lapeer, Livingston, St. Clair and Washtenaw Counties. Because we are in these same Detroit-area courts day-in and day-out, we know how things are done in them, and how to make sure you get the fewest penalties in each.

In a DUI case, every single bit of evidence has to be carefully examined. 

A Michigan DUI charge won't dismiss itself. My team and I know all the little things that determine whether a DUI charge can stick or not, and how to look for them

The evidence in a drunk driving case involves a lot more than just your score on a breath (or blood) test, and includes - 

• Everything that lead to your first contact with the police,
• The field sobriety tests, 
• The methods used to collect and analyze your breath (or blood) sample, and 
• The science underlying those results. 

My team and I will meticulously sort through all of it so you can get out of this situation with as little damage as possible.

I am unique among DUI lawyers because I am clinically trained, having completed a formal program of addiction studies at the post-graduate, University level. 

This specialized education gives me and my team the unrivaled ability to really help you avoid difficult probation with demanding classes, counseling and/or treatment when your drinking isn’t a problem, and the ability to help you like no other lawyer if your relationship to alcohol has become problematic. 

We will make sure that your case goes smoothly and get you through this rough patch so you can move on with your life.

The whole Court system has a built-in bias that tends to "see" a drinking issue even where there isn't one. If you are required to submit to any kind of alcohol testing as a condition of your bond, you've already had your first taste of that. 

Because of my unique educational background, my team and I are especially able to protect you from being treated as if you do have a drinking problem when you don't. 

I not only speak the language of lawyers and judges, but I also speak the language of clinicians, and I will speak on your behalf with unmatched authority when it comes to protecting you from the consequences of a DUI charge. 

• The court system is required to deal with every alcohol and drug problem that is identified to even possibly arise, whether or not it actually exists at the moment. Although most Judges and probation officers are well-meaning, they are not clinicians. 
• In the clinical world, it is widely recognized that the court system is usually at least a solid decade behind current treatment methods. 
• The best (and most up-to-date) approach is to match people with the kind of help that actually fits their needs, instead of just mashing everyone into AA meetings or some other, one-size-fits-all kind of treatment.

Ou firm won't allow you to be left behind in that way. We will do everything to make sure you get the kind of help you need - and none that you don't.
